What culinary advice would you give to StTexan? Because the food he makes looks disgusting.

^ I was at first confused after a decade away. But I found your food folder.

Honestly, one of my biggest food tips is don't take pictures of your food. Many delicious things don't look great unless you do the whole staged lighting angle thing. And I'm not about that. Cook and eat while it's hot. Fuck the 'gram.

Real culinary advice though: cast iron pan, heated up early. Add oil, add onions, and figure it out from there,

My pregnant wife keeps commenting on how big her belly is getting, and looking at me for agreement. Is she trying to trick me into calling her fat?

3/31/2026 7:20:38 PM

Possibly, but that is very situation dependent. Assuming you have a healthy and mutually supportive marriage, I think she's likely looking for positive feedback like "and you are nourishing [name] and I can't wait to meet them."

If she has body image issues, maybe shy away from body comments and reiterate how beautiful you find her and how much you appreciate what she is doing for your family.

Congratulations! Is this your first?

How long has it been, if ever, since you shot a gun?

3/31/2026 7:35:31 PM

Thanks! And yeah, it's our first. We had a lot of fertility problems in the past, but everything has gone well this time.

3/31/2026 7:37:57 PM

January was the last time I pulled a trigger.

I wore my concealed carry today, though.

3/31/2026 7:38:28 PM

^^ Shit, dude, that is so hard. I get it. I had a handful of miscarriages and ultimately ended up deciding not to have kids. So very happy for you!

3/31/2026 7:39:56 PM

Ever given serious consideration to adopting?

3/31/2026 7:41:50 PM

EMCE please tell your wife that i think she looks incredibly hot right now

3/31/2026 7:42:25 PM

^^^.


^ done. She says "they don't see what I look like right now, rolling around on the couch like a beached whale, struggling to get up.

^^^ Yes.

But no. I was adopted and ... it wasn't good.

I know I would be a great mother. But also, fuck, it's a lot more complex than that.

I will always mourn my children who didn't make it to my arms but I also think this world is not one I particularly want to bring a child into.

Do you have any notable plants?

3/31/2026 8:08:01 PM

I have a planter of chives on my deck that has taught be a lot of unexpected lessons.

Every winter it looks very dead. Its planter freezes solid. The weather here stays at below 20 degrees for weeks at a time. And then every spring it busts through the dried remnants of last year's crop, before I even think to expect growth, and yields beautiful and delicious flowers that feed bees and hummingbirds.

Also, there's some very persistent mildew on my stairs if that counts.

Do you say dinner or supper?

3/31/2026 8:58:30 PM

Dinner.

However I recently heard a line in Blacklist I liked, something along the lines of "I like dinner at lunch, a light supper, drinks at both."

3/31/2026 9:23:20 PM

I'm a dinner person too

What was for dinner?

3/31/2026 9:35:50 PM

Did you hear about the passing of my esteemed brethren BobbyDigital and jackleg?

3/31/2026 9:36:00 PM

Leftover burrito bowl with brown rice, pulled pork, black beans, ghost pepper cheese, fajita veggies, and probably some other stuff I am forgetting.

Say "wink" and add the other sounds. The "skwink" part is one syllable.
